Social Sciences and Humanities Curriculum Review
Feedback Consultation – Fall 2009

OCTEVAW | 2009

In January, 2009 educators and other stakeholders had an opportunity to provide feedback on the proposed draft revisions of a number of courses in the Social Sciences and Humanities Curriculum, Grades 9 to 12. We are now soliciting feedback from educators and stakeholders on three new courses which will be a part of the revised Social Sciences and Humanities Curriculum. These courses are:

  • Gender Studies (Grade 11 – University/College Preparation)
  • World Cultures (Grade 12 – University/College Preparation)
  • Human Dynamics (Grade 11 – Workplace Preparation)
